1914 Harley-Davidson Board Track Racer Tribute - Walkthrough 

Thank you very much!! I really appreciate that.

I’ve built a number of them. I just didn’t make a video for each one. I need to make some more though. Thanks!

Thank you!

The supply chain has been a little tricky lately. I’ve been having to buy those parts off eBay because one source can’t keep them in stock. Message me via FB Messenger and I’ll try and send you some links. EDG Classics. Thanks!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!!

I appreciate that! I just wanted to help inspire a few mew builders and maybe share some different ideas for the experienced guys. Thanks again!

@@EDGClassics My buddy, Jeff and I are on our own builds. I'm also restoring two early Simplex cycles.

@@mikehasuga4959 I love those early Simplex bikes!!

Thanks! I still want to put a video together on the way I get the patina look.

That’s great! Keep us updated!

Thank you very much!

I make the tanks myself from sheet metal purchased at Home Depot.

@@EDGClassics Are U selling them??? Send me info and contact info if you are.

@@mikehasuga4959 you can send me a message via FB messenger. You can find me under EDG Classics. Just know that I usually make the tanks once I have the frame. Sometimes even the slightest differences in the frame dimensions will cause the tank to have to be make specifically for that frame.

I did not bend the frame tubes. This frame was made by Harken Cycles.

This frame came from Harken Cycles. Moto Madness also make a good frame.

By the way the gas tank is spot-on looks really cool before looking at your videos I was thinking to do something similar with the knobs but I'll look around at different board tracks models and see what I like Harley-Davidson looks amazing but that's not the type of bike I'm building at the moment

The frames I use are NOT bicycles frames. They are build specifically for these type of motor bikes. This frame was made by Harken Cycles.

@@mozezcen-valley7555 thanks! I make the tanks myself. Take your time and I’m sure your tank and bike will be great! Be sure to post pics or a video of your work!

Hello Daniel! Thanks for the kind words! I’m sorry about your carb. I’ve had the best luck with the Honda replacement carbs. They have a few more adjustment capabilities thank the stock ones. It’s hard to determine why your idle won’t come down without seeing your setup but could you possibly have an air leak somewhere near the intake or an air vent plugged/capped off? Those would cause an issue with the idle for sure. As for the braces, I usually make my own using miscellaneous metal and made specifically for the engine and frame I’m using.

I’ve seen plenty of other builders use the Briggs engines. They are very dependable and you can easily make one work on your frame. I’m sure a few minor adjustments will have to be made but you can definitely make it work. Good luck!

On this bike, I used a Honda GC190. I’ve used the GC160 on other builds as well. Both engines have worked well for me.

Thank you very much! You can message me on Face messenger. I’m available at EDG Classics.

@@EDGClassics thank you, see you soon!!!

It depends on the bike that I’m building. This is a Harken Cycles frame.

This frame was by Harken.

I’ve sold bikes I completed before, but never a roller. I’m.not opposed to it though.

It turned out better than I expected. They are fun to ride and people love checking them out.

It’s a GC190 stock flywheel.
